Arthritis Treatment & Pain Relief: September 2007

Instead of relying on painkillers or other artificial medications, you may wish to try a more natural remedy to reduce muscle inflammation and pain caused by arthritis.

Aloe Vera

Aloe Vera is a natural source of vitamin B12 as well as other minerals that are important in maintaining a healthy body. It has many health benefits without any known side effects. Animal studies have shown that drinking Aloe Vera can help reduce inflammation.

Ashwagandha

Ashwagandha, also known as Indian ginseng is really promising as a natural remedy. It has only recently come into medical attention. It is part of the Asian potato family and its roots have been used to treat rheumatism, high blood pressure, immune dysfunctions and ease inflammation. Recommended dosage is 300mg twice a day.

Bromelain

Bromelain found in pineapples help to inhibit pro-inflammatory and block the production of kinins, a chemical that increases swelling and causes pain. Recommended dosage 250-750mg two times a day or follow the instructions given on the packaging.

Chicken Gelatine

Chicken gelatine helps to reduce joint pain and tenderness. A study by Harvard Medical School has shown several patients had "complete remission" of their rheumatoid condition. The excerpts from the study could be found at

You can detoxify your body when you consume nothing but fruit, vegetables and juices as a substitute for their normal everyday meals. Detoxification has proved to be extremely effective, especially in treating rheumatoid arthritic patients. The reason for this is that people are allergic to certain foods which aggravate their arthritic symptoms. By leaving the allergic foods out of their diet, symptoms usually improve.

Think of your body as a sponge, it can only absorb so many chemicals before it stops and things go wrong. If you are taking in more chemicals and producing more toxins than your body can get rid off then we would have an imbalance. When this occurs, your body is more prone to illnesses and diseases - because of this we must stay within our body's tolerance levels to maintain a healthy body and immune system.

The most logical explanation why detoxification is so effective is that eating only fruit and vegetables, you are avoiding those foods that contain chemicals that can potentially aggravate the symptoms of arthritis. Study done by Palmblad et al in 1991 found that total fasting for a few days substantially reduced joint swelling, morning stiffness and other arthritis symptoms. The reasons why total fasting works so well in reducing the symptoms is because there is less chemicals in the body to start the inflammation process.

Total fasting is only used as an example of how diet can affect your arthritis. It is not recommended that you fast because it deprives your body of important nutrients. However, fasting can be used at the start of a diet to clear your body of toxins.
